The Last Day Of The Old Year

Interesting! 

We walk the entire year

To face this day on the end.

A full-year around;

Day after day we face every morning

With worries, plans and dreams.

So, we grow from what it takes

 – path of success or chain of mistakes.

But this last day is special;

We summer all at ones 

– we try to suppress the pain  

And get free from the chain of sorrows.

We try to left behind illusions,

Sift the seeds of good and bed emotions;

Better-sweet disappointments

And to heal in a night, 

getting everything right.

We try to throw in the bin

The greed of the last seven days

of the old year.

This day is a BRIDGE

Between the old that pretty soon

will disappear and the new.

In this last day we count the hours,

the minutes, the seconds

on the running clock.

We cheer with blessings and hope.

Just remember in the new year

to keep tide to the ROPE.
